Thank you Steve for the response!
Based on the discussions with my team and based on what I have learned so far about Snapshots, I feel that it might not really benefit us because of the following reasons:
- **Frequent addition of new versions:** We have a new version of a component available to be deployed in UCD every night.
- **Multiple Components:** If we plan to leverage snapshots, we would have to create not one but multiple snapshots each day due to the many combinations of supported component versions that can be deployed.
- **Loss of Flexibility/Freedom:** We might loose the freedom to undeploy/redeploy specific components only in upgrade scenarios.
Considering the above, I was wondering if there is any other way to achieve what I am looking for...

One way to do this would be to use snapshots, and only allow snapshots to be deployed. Assuming you trust the creator of the snapshot, you can guarantee that the correct combination of versions will be deployed.
Snapshots are intended to represent relationships between versions so that is why they fit your use case.Tue, 23 Jun 2015 15:02:06 GMTSteve McGrew
